- John Treherne was a Fellow of Downing College, Cambridge and University Reader in Zoology. He was Editor of the Journal of Experimental Biology for fifteen
years, from 1974 until his death from a heart attack on September 23rd 1989.
He wrote numerous papers, monographs and books on biological subjects. However his interests ranged far beyond Zoology and Natural History as he became a successful author in 1983 writing a book every year from 1983 until his death in 1989.
He had a particular interest in the real life characters of Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow and wrote about the true story as opposed to the urban legend of "Bonnie and Clyde".

The Galapagos affair door J. E. Treherne
Read while sailing around the Galapagos Islands, fascinating....
This book deals with the strange case of Archdeacon John Wakeford, a well-known preacher and churchman who in 1921 found himself accused by a fellow priest of committing adultery, leading to his suspension, trial in consistory court and an appeal before the Privy Council which involved England's leading legal luminaries. The outcome for him was notoriety and madness, yet there was considerable doubt about his guilt. This book carefully sets out Wakeford's life up till these events, showing how he gathered friends and enemies in equal measure, and had to deal with the poisonous politics of the Cathedral Close in Lincoln - echoes of later events! The evidence on both sides is thoroughly examined and the role of the fraudster Horatio Bottomley in promoting Wakeford's claims to innocence is detailed. Overall, a very useful account of what is now an almost forgotten tale.… (meer)
